About Me

I am interested in learning more about family history and how my family fits into the history of the nation. This starts out with answers to questions from my daughter-in-law, Keri Hills. The first question is answered in the oldest post.

Keri's Questionaire

Keri has 50 questions that she would like to have answered as part of her quest to fill in the blanks in geneology she's putting together for Sable.
Good idea. Great way to start posting.

First Question:
1.What is your full name? Why did your parents select this name for you?

My mother  named me - Jackie Lea Williams.  Jackie, for my dad (Jack Arthur Williams).  He may have not been exactly thrilled to be a parent at the age of 20.  Maybe that was supposed to help.
Mama gave me "Lea" (pronounced Lee) " as a middle name so that  if I didn't like my first name- I could always go by my middle name. Mama had  aspirations that I would stretch my wings far from Kettle Falls and  if I needed a more sophisticated name in the future- it was taken care of.
